The Mene-Tekel or Menetekel Deck is a mechanical deck credited to Burling Hull (1910)

The name "Mene, Tekel" was first applied by W.D. Leroy (a magic dealer from Boston).

Like the Svengali Deck it contains 26 ordinary cards and 26 short cards, but all the short cards are the same suit and value.

Effects: A card is selected and placed back in the center of me deck. Instantly it jumps to the top of the deck.

A card is selected and returned to the pack. Instantly, you are able to name that card.
